50 Responses to “Best Hair Metal Love Ballads Ever (4-hour megamix)”

I received an email from a lawyer threatening me with a “$2,000,000 fine
and/or ten years in jail” if I didn’t take the Iron Maiden Guitar Solo
megamix down. I took it down. Better to be safe, I guess.

Bankers can steal billions from the US taxpayer, but if you and me share a
song or two on YouTube we get the book thrown at us. This is how the
justice system works now.

I guess this is how they’re dealing with people, not even going through the
youtube copyright system anymore. This one may be suddenly pulled down too
at some point. I just haven’t gotten the email yet.

Just letting you all know. Up the Irons, but watch out for the goddamned
lawyers.﻿

I hope youtube keep this one forever, this list is absolutely fantastic. on
the other hand, we can quickly switch songs and it’s a great effort to put
in for this one.. well done and thanks for sharing..﻿

i hate seeing any band being labeled a GLAM band. as if its a way to
discredit their music a lot of times. they were great musicians and their
music has stood the test of time. how many bands of the 90’s are still
around ,or that anyone cares about, how many 90’s bands could actually do
a show for a couple thousand people anywhere? 80’s good times, fun loving
, excessive life style, is a GREAT era of music that will NEVER DIE OR GO
AWAY.﻿

Hey Dee Snider, the image killed alot of these bands. Everyone had the same
look…that’s why the term “hair metal” or “hair bands” came along. I will
agree that every band started to have a ballad or 2 on their albums, but I
cannot agree to condemn every band since most of them could play circles
around Twisted Sister. Twisted Sister had a few songs that I liked, such as
Stay Hungry, but image wise you and your band were doing it also just that
you looked liked ugly trannies.﻿

I’ll agree with Dee on the whole unplugged crap. I couldn’t stand that
garbage either, and certainly things got a little over processed, however,
Dee isn’t one to throw stones about music quality. Metal faded away the
same reason everything else does. The masters of the industry have to keep
changing things to sell more stuff. Like fashion, the stuff you have to
have now will be a WTF were we thinking photo later on only to become the
fad again down the road. The fact that we as a population keep lapping up
what the masters tell us to, makes me sick. The 80’s hair bands were great
and I still can’t find anything to top it yet.

Meanwhile most of the Pop 40 crap that hits #1 will become the “dreaded
morning oldie, jukebox from hell” song in 10 years.﻿

metal…all kinds…has screwed itself. As Dio said, it all got split up
into silly lil camps, when it was all HARD ROCK. metal metal metal SCREW
metal!!!! as Joan Jett said in her cheezy lil ditty I WANT ROCK N
ROLL!!!!!!!!!!﻿

R.I.P. Jani – he was a Rocker- He Liked Metal- – the death of him was he
was a romantic. Like in the beginning of this video words stated,,i too was
anti hair bands back in the day- Big 4 and all- I’m sad to see this,,,but
thank you for posting﻿

Janie may you rest in peace, but Cherry pie extended Warrants career. Does
any one disagree. Cherry pie or not the grim reaper named Nirvana was
coming for all glam metals souls, and devoured them like Cherry pie. ﻿

I loved unplugged. I also liked Cherry Pie. It was a fun song. To me
however, Jani was never the Cherry Pie Guy. I loved Heaven, Uncle Toms
Cabin, etc. I hate that Jani felt that way & was so hard on himself. I
never liked Twisted Sister at all & disagree with everything Dee Snyder
said here.﻿
